shh... I'm thinking...
What could you snack on day in and day out?

I could live life on tortilla chips and salsa or warm dips alone. Seriously. I just found a new spinach dip I can't wait to make! Mmm.

Table water crackers and chocolate covered brazil nuts, which I don't eat enough off as it is. Skipping the chocolate covered brazil nuts, I'll just keep at it with the plain ones and whole almonds. :D

This thread is making me hungry... that and the smell of sweet and sour meatballs coming from the slow cooker!

My favorite snacks - SunChips, and home made chocolate chip cookies. (Luckily I don't snack much.)

Chips & salsa and beer. Guacamole. But I dont do this daily......only in the summer time. Winter time I have no daily snacks. Coffee maybe.

One more I forgot: beer-cheese fondue with broccoli and bread chunks for dipping. Almost a meal, really; but oh, so good.

This is the best one I've tried so far...quick and easy. I'll add, though, that it's better if you cut a garlic clove in half and rub the inside of the fondue pot with it before simmering the beer.


Cheddar Beer Fondue III
Recipe from the Pricechopper.com. This version combines cheddar, jack and Gruyere cheeses.

[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][SIZE=-1]I N G R E D I E N T S[/SIZE][/FONT]
[SIZE=-1]6 oz Monterey Jack cheese, shredded[/SIZE]
[SIZE=-1]4 oz Gruyere cheese, shredded[/SIZE]
[SIZE=-1]4 oz sharp processed Cheddar cheese, grated[/SIZE]
[SIZE=-1]1 1/2 tbsp all-purpose flour[/SIZE]
[SIZE=-1]1 cup lager beer, at room temperature[/SIZE]
[SIZE=-1]1 tsp dry mustard[/SIZE]
[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][SIZE=-1]I N S T R U C T I O N S[/SIZE][/FONT]
In a bowl combine Monterey Jack, Gruyere, sharp Cheddar and flour; mix well to coat cheese with flour. Set aside. In a large saucepan, bring beer to a simmer over medium heat. Reduce heat to medium low. Add cheese-flour mixture by handfuls to saucepan, stirring constantly after each addition with a wooden spoon in a figure-eight motion until cheese is melted. When cheese is nearly all melted, stir in dry mustard, mixing well. Transfer to fondue pot and serve immediately.

2 8-oz. packages of cream cheese
2 cups shredded sharp cheddar
1 pkg ranch dressing mix powder
3/4 cup beer (Corona, people. Come on, don't be cheap, it's a party)
Fresh chopped chives, parsley, basil or whatever else is growing in the herb garden.

Blend in a blender, chill for a couple of hours, serve.

Smoked oysters and Cheese Whiz on crackers. Don't forget the touch of horseradish atop each oyster.
